Salon and spa owners can gain insights into AI integration at the Birmingham and Leeds Regional Growth Summits 2026. AI strategist Marnie Wills will deliver keynote speeches on how artificial intelligence can reshape business leadership.
Wills's talk, 'Personal AI Intelligence: The Essential Mindset for Every Salon Business Leader,' aims to demystify AI for industry professionals. The session will focus on cultivating an AI mindset and integrating the technology into daily operations like planning, marketing, and client communication. Attendees are expected to learn how to develop their own AI workflows.
Marnie Wills, who also serves as CEO and Founder of SportyMinis, specialises in guiding business leaders through AI implementation. Her approach emphasises practical application over technical jargon, positioning AI as a collaborative tool for modern salon management.
The Regional Growth Summits offer free, one-day business education, networking, and supplier connections. Beyond Wills's keynote, sessions include panel discussions and business strategy roundtables. These events are designed for owners, directors, and senior managers in the beauty sector.
The Birmingham Summit is scheduled for 11 May 2026 at The Eastside Rooms. The Leeds Summit will take place on 8 June 2026 at The Royal Armouries Museum. Registration for these events is free.
